Effect of the structure of cyclic <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-nitramines on the rate and mechanism of their thermolysis

Manometry together IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and chromatography were used to study thermolysis of six-membered cyclic N-nitramines containing one, two, or three nitramine fragments, as well as oxo, gem-dinitro, azide, nitroimino, amino, and tetrazolyl functions. An effect of the conformation and functional groups on the rate, mechanism, and activation parameters of the limiting stage of themolysis was revealed.
